I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 690 The Messenger Arrives

"It's all my fault." Xue Baochai took the initiative to admit her mistake in front of Huang Feng Dasheng. This time, Zhang Tianying Divine Generals came from the gate of the boundary with a total of 12,000 people, while 18,000 people stayed in the mortal world of Pangu Heavenly Dao and were unable to come.

If she hadn't lost that Xuanyu statue, it could have carried more of Zhuang Yan's power and wouldn't have been shut down so quickly by the power of the two Dao Ancestors, Wind and Thunder.

The Great Sage Huang Feng asked, "How is that Fellow Daoist Lei Huaqing doing?"

Xue Baochai stood there stunned, not reacting for a long time, until the Great Sage Huang Feng's gaze fell on her, and she suddenly came to her senses, "Oh, he took the elixir given by the Grand Commandant, and his injuries have healed by 70%."

The Great Sage Huang Feng nodded and said, "I need information on the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder and the Heavenly Dao of the Five Elements, the more the better, and the more detailed the better."

Xue Baochai remained silent for a long while, hesitating and not uttering a word. The Great Sage Huangfeng asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No," Xue Baochai quickly shook her head, then said, "Grand Commandant, why don't you punish me? I discarded the statue of the Divine Emperor, causing this situation. I am guilty."

The Great Sage Huang Feng said, "If you are guilty, go to the Heavenly Law Department to turn yourself in. I am just a military officer who fights battles."

Xue Baochai said, "But there is no Heavenly Law Office here."

"That's settled then. There's no Heavenly Law Department here, so what crime are you confessing to? Wait until the Heavenly Bridge is open before you go back and confess," said the Great Sage Yellow Wind. "Right now, I just need information!"

Xue Baochai's expression brightened, and she immediately replied, "Yes, Grand Commandant."

Immediately, Xue Baochai told Huang Feng Dasheng all the information she had obtained about the Five Elements Heavenly Dao and the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao. Two hours later, Huang Feng Dasheng nodded in satisfaction and said, "Now I have a better understanding of what to do next."

Xue Baochai nodded, then asked, "Grand Commandant, I heard the voice of the Divine Firmament Emperor earlier, why didn't he enter the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Path?"

Huang Feng Dasheng said, "The Divine Firmament Emperor is a Great Luo Golden Immortal, so naturally he cannot casually enter the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Path to take risks."

Xue Baochai suddenly realized that the great number of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao had not been damaged. At this moment, if a Golden Immortal from another Heavenly Dao entered, he would only be directly suppressed by the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao and enter eternal silence.

Although they could be annihilated by the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder at any time, to put it bluntly, such losses are acceptable.

“Before the completion of the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge, we are at risk of being annihilated by the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao or powerful beings within its mortal realm, without any backup,” said the Great Sage Huang Feng.

Xue Baochai nodded and said, "I know that. Moreover, our souls do not belong to the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder. Once we die, our souls will also dissipate, and our spirit and body will perish."

How could she not know this? She had helped the people of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao conquer nine minor worlds, and her understanding of this was gained through countless bloodshed and corpses.

Xue Baochai had a question: "Then why doesn't the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder directly annihilate the Five Elements Heavenly Dao immortal cultivators who have invaded the mortal world?"

The Great Sage Huangfeng said, "The Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge was constructed by a Grand Luo Golden Immortal and is an extension of our own Heavenly Dao. The Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao has opened up the boundary of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, and the power of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao has been extended and projected over. In addition to ensuring the normal operation of the laws of the present world, the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao also has to resist the invasion of the power of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao, and it is simply unable to take care of the attacks and wars of the immortal cultivators below."

"So, does that mean we're safe?" Xue Baochai said.

The Great Sage Huang Feng nodded and said, "As long as the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder does not see us as a threat, we are safe."

"Then what can be considered a threat?" Xue Baochai continued to ask.

The Great Sage Huang Feng said, "Only by attaining the Great Awakening Golden Immortal Dao Fruit can one be considered a threat to the Heavenly Dao of a region."

Xue Baochai immediately laughed: "Then I'm very safe. Surely a mere Earth Immortal like me wouldn't be subject to the personal annihilation of a Heavenly Dao."

The Great Sage Huang Feng said, "Just do less stupid things in the future. Who knows which Heavenly Dao might dislike fools, and then you'll be in danger."

Xue Baochai blushed immediately. She knew that the Yellow Wind Great Sage was referring to her previous foolish ideas and her act of discarding the Xuan Yu statue.

“Yes,” Xue Baochai replied, raising her head and saying, “People sometimes make foolish mistakes, but they can’t stay foolish forever.”

The Great Sage Huang Feng laughed and said, "The fact that you can say this means you are safe. All intelligent beings like smart children, and I believe that the Heavenly Dao is no exception."

Just then, a divine general approached and said to the Great Sage Huangfeng, "Reporting to the Grand Commandant, a messenger claiming to be from the 'Yuanlei Mansion' has arrived to pay his respects." The Great Sage Huangfeng asked, "Where does this person come from?"

The divine general reported, "It is a person from the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder manifested in the world."

The Great Sage Huang Feng immediately said, "Bring him here."

"As you command." The divine general turned and left. The place they were staying was the ruins of the former Upper Rock Realm. Because almost all the surrounding minor worlds had been destroyed, they could only find a ruin to stay in temporarily.

Soon, a middle-aged man dressed in a thunder robe was brought before the Great Sage Huangfeng by the divine general. The Great Sage Huangfeng looked at him and said, "What brings you to see me?"

The middle-aged man looked at the Great Sage Yellow Wind and noticed his strange, rat-like appearance, which puzzled him.

Seeing his strange expression, the Great Sage Yellow Wind asked, "Do I have flowers on my face?"

The middle-aged man reacted instantly and hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "My apologies, my apologies. I am Lei Shangting, envoy of Yuan Lei Prefecture, paying my respects to Grand Commandant Zhang Tian."

Huang Feng, the Great Sage, sat imposingly on a sandalwood chair, looking at Lei Shangting and asking, "As an envoy, what do you wish to discuss with me?"

Lei Shangting quickly explained his purpose, saying, "I have come on the orders of my Immortal Lord, firstly to express my gratitude, and secondly to offer my congratulations."

"Oh?" The Great Sage Yellow Wind raised an eyebrow. "Why are you thanking me? And offering your congratulations?"

Lei Shangting quickly replied, "The thanks are to thank the Grand Commandant and fellow Daoists for rescuing the people of my Yuan Lei Mansion, while the congratulations are a small gift that my Yuan Lei Mansion is sending to the Grand Commandant and fellow Daoists of Pangu Heavenly Dao to express our gratitude."

"What?" The Great Sage Yellow Wind frowned. "When did we save the people from your Yuanlei Mansion?"

Xue Baochai, who was standing to the side, suddenly realized what was going on and quickly reminded him, "Grand Commandant, could he be referring to Fellow Daoist Lei Huaqing?"

“That’s right, that’s right.” Lei Shangting hurriedly said, “I am referring to Lei Huaqing. He is a disciple of my Yuan Lei Mansion. He was trapped in a great encirclement. If it weren’t for the Grand Commandant and the fellow Daoists of Pangu Heavenly Dao’s efforts to save him, he would have met with misfortune.”

The Great Sage Huang Feng waved his hand and said, "What do you mean by 'striving to save you'? It was just a matter of course. You make it sound like we fought a very tough battle."

“Of course, of course,” Lei Shangting said. “The divine might of our fellow Daoists of the Pangu Heavenly Dao is so great that wherever they go, the Five Elements Heavenly Dao bandits are crushed. It is truly admirable.”

The Great Sage Huang Feng laughed heartily, “No wonder your immortal master sent you as an envoy. Your eloquence is indeed worthy of the mission. Tell me, what congratulatory gifts has your Yuan Lei Palace prepared?”

Lei Shangting immediately took out a gold letter from his sleeve and handed it over. The divine general next to him was about to take it when he saw this, but Xue Baochai stopped him and then went up herself.

Seeing this, the divine general returned to his original position to serve, while Xue Baochai took the golden letter and handed it to the Great Sage Yellow Wind.

The Great Sage Huang Feng unfolded the golden letter and immediately sat up straight. "What? Yuan Lei Mansion directly assigned one of its minor worlds to us for stationing, and even included all the resources of that minor world?"

“Yes.” Lei Shangting cupped his hands and smiled, “The Immortal Lord said that the Grand Commandant and fellow Daoists are guests, and we should do our best to be hospitable. Therefore, we have offered a small world to the Grand Commandant and fellow Daoists for them to settle down. This is just a small gift and not much to show our respect.”

The Great Sage Huang Feng took a deep breath, held the golden letter in his hand, and then looked at Lei Shangting and said, "A small world and all its resources, that's quite generous."

It has to be said that this arrangement is perfect; what the Great Sage Yellow Wind lacks now is a stable place to settle down.

If the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao doesn't offer it to him, he plans to go to the Five Elements Heavenly Dao to seize a foothold. After all, to gain a foothold in the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao without any support, he can't afford to strain his relationship with them too much.

If they can't get it from the Five Elements Heavenly Dao, then they can only try to negotiate with the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao.

To his surprise, the people of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao actually offered him a small world to establish himself in. This made him even more determined in his mind that he should first join forces with the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao to attack the Five Elements Heavenly Dao. This would be the policy he would adhere to before the completion of the Pangu Heavenly Dao's Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge.

Therefore, the Great Sage Huangfeng did not refuse the gift, because it was not only a gift, but also a gesture of goodwill from the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder. He had to accept this goodwill so that the two sides could continue to discuss the next steps of cooperation.

So when Lei Shangting saw Huang Feng accept the gift and express his gratitude, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, a joyful smile spreading across his face. (End of Chapter)
